I just looked up what I can recycle here in Burnaby:<br /><br />http://www.city.burnaby.bc.ca/cityhall/departments/engnrn/engnrn_snttnr/snglfm.html<br /><br />Looks like I can recycle a lot of stuff, including plastic bags. Didn't know that I can't recycle milk cartons though, I guess I'll try to buy plastic milk jugs from now on.Horahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15591752591928687425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427276245956377748.post-49384525181912867932010-10-12T09:15:15.503-05:002010-10-12T09:15:15.503-05:00Hey Hora!

I know in at least some parts of California you can recycle almost anything plastic. In Winnipeg, anything that can be classified as a "plastic bag" is no good, unfortunately. As for stuff that you put in the recycling that isn't recyclable, I imagine it just gets thrown in the garbage.Liannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10426150893408223206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427276245956377748.post-24867689429828329232010-10-08T20:09:46.114-05:002010-10-08T20:09:46.114-05:00Wait, so form your posts it seems like most plasti...Wait, so form your posts it seems like most plastics aren't recyclable. I throw pretty much all plastics in the recycling - what happens to that plastic once it reaches the plant?Horahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15591752591928687425noreply@blogger.com
